So what's happened to the Sjoeblom Winery Chauvignon Crystal?

I used always to give my avatar a little celebration after a global:



but I've run out of bottles and the occasional one that comes up in auction is ridiculously expensive now.
 
They are aging in cellars all over Calypso :) Check the mall shops, I think I have seen one or two bottles about.

Cheers

Thanks, Bjorn. I'll have a look at the shops, but really I want more than one or two bottles.

There was a time when one could get a stack of 50 or whatever - what was it, about I PED a bottle? Now people are paying 20 PED a bottle at auction.

I'm wondering whether there is some structural reason for the shortage - or a speculator buying them all up? And why can't the base price be a fixed TT value - that would make it far easier for a sensible MU to develop! :scratch2:

All rhetorical questions :dunno:

Champagne was a Christmas Gift - in 2007 iirc.

It was only for Estate Owners/>10kped depositors - one stack player in those categories

There was only a limited number of bottles/stack too.

So, yes, there's a structural reason for the shortage. Each time a bottle is 'popped' there is one less lefply in the Universe.

And as they teach in Economics 101, as supply decreases, prices tend to increase.

Yah, so in the end we will probably only have 10-20 bottles left in the entire universe, used as decorations and bragging objects by the rich people :laugh: just like RL

Ah, thanks. Seems I should have hoarded my bottles rather than let my avatar consume them! Never mind, he was happy.

Uuuhmmm, uuuuhmmmm:ahh:

I have two in my appartment one with 99 and one with 100 charges :)

But no i am not bragging and I am far from rich.

greetings,

They should do a new run of these. Order a bottle of the real world thing and get a in-game bottle as a reward. Or similar.
 
I got 100 that christmas :D

I am going to horde mine like someone said above and just show it off in the gallery as part of the hotie totie atmosphere of the place.:ahh:


ART SNOB!:laugh:
